WARNING

Prevent serial trigger module damage and never apply external voltages to the clock and data output
connectors.

SDA 7 Zi and 8 Zi model oscilloscopes include a serial pattern trigger and a Clock and Data Recovery module.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

SDA 725 Zi and SDA 735 Zi model oscilloscopes include the WavePro Medium Speed Serial Trigger module
option (WPZi-MSPT). The CDR range is 100 Mb/s - 1.25 Gb/s.

SDA 740 Zi and SDA 760 Zi model oscilloscopes include the WavePro High Speed Serial Trigger module
option (WPZi-HSPT). The CDR range 100 Mb/s - 2.7 Gb/s, 3.0, 3.125 Gb/s.

All of the SDA 8 Zi and Zi-A model oscilloscopes include the WaveMaster High Speed Serial Trigger
module option (WM8Zi-HSPT). The CDR range 100 Mb/s - 2.7 Gb/s, 3.0, 3.125 Gb/s.

The CDR module is built into the instrument and is accessible through the channel 4 input. The signal on channel
4 is always present at the input to the serial pattern trigger module. The serial trigger also includes two outputs
located on the front panel, to the right of the channel 4 input. These two SMA connectors allow access to the
recovered clock and data signals from the serial trigger module for signals up to 2.7 Gb/s. The signals at these
connectors are nominally zero mean with a peak-to-peak amplitude of 330 mV.

Note: The recovered clock and recovered data output signals are not available for 3 and 3.125 Gb/s.
